Label Love - Viktor & Rolf S/S 2011

When one anticipates a Viktor & Rolf show, it's expected that their will be outrageous pieces, crazy silhouettes and unexpected details that will challenge you ideas on conventional fashion, or at the very least, make you sit up and take notice. Their latest S/S 2011 runway collection was no exception, with pieces seemingly inspired by Alice in Wonderland on even more hallucinogens and in the midst of a huge Mad-Hatter hosted wedding reception.

Vertical striped of bold blue and shiny red, oversized shoulders, exaggerated asymmetry and multiple, enlarged cuffs and other whimsical details made the collection truly unique and gave it a healthy dose of fun, which is signature for Viktor & Rolf. But once you get past the humor and eccentricities, it's obvious that these garments are full of intricate details and true skill and talent in the construction. Personal loves were the shirt dresses in varying styles and the frothy use of fabric and ruching. Satin fabrics were made into crazy wedding-style gowns that looked appropriate for the weddings of the likes of Rihanna or Lady Gaga, especially the finale piece.

Viktor & Rolf S/S 2011 collection is one piece of art after another and while many of the ensembles seemed too outrageous for everday wear, many of the pieces, when separated, are completely wearable for the fashion conscious! Click the slideshow to see some Viktor & Rolf S/S 2011 faves!

Label Love - Louis Vuitton S/S 2011

Vibrant hues, sumptuous satins and silky knits, Oriental inspired cuts and details, bold animal and floral prints and an overall feel of 1970s luxe took over the runway for the Louis Vuitton S/S 2011 runway show.

Dresses and silhouettes that celebrated a woman's shape and curves were detailed with mandarin collars, thigh-high slits and bold color blocking. Jumpsuits and one pieces featured plunging necklines, metallic shimmer and colorful blocking, with voluminous, billowing fabric and cinched waists all around.

With the Asian-inspired influence, colorful animal and floral prints and sophisticated sensuality, the entire collection was reminiscent of a nonchalantly luxurious and fashion forward Shanghai from it's hey-day as the Paris of the Orient.

NYFW - Alexander Wang F/W 2011

Alexander Wang's Fall 2011 ready-to-wear collection was fierce and striking as ever! This creative genius never fails to hit the mark and his edgy jackets with fur details and leather pants would make any downtown girl swoon!

We can already picture the coming months of street style girls wearing these combo ponchos in a sort of Clint Eastwood meets Carine Roitfeld chic. Black was at the forefront for color choices with occasional pale pinks and rich grays making guest appearances.

It was a collection of juxtapositions with rough nylons, tough leathers and smooth silks gracing the runway and flowing silhouettes mixed with stern and strructured lines, giving the collection an overall feel bi-polarity that we just can't get enough of!

NYFW - Badgley Mischka F/W 2011

A beloved red-carpet darling, Badgley Mischka is known for their attention to details, be it expert draping or precise lines and structure, that are fashion forward while still being classically feminine. Their latest RTW collection for Fall/ Winter 2011 was no exception.

Fluid fabrics featuring strategic twists and billowing layers paraded down the runway in an array of black and pop jewel tones. Key-hole cutouts, sheer materials and flattering pleating were just a few of the main design details featured, with all pieces oozing sensuality.

Fur-trimmed coats, feather trim, elbow gloves in varying colors and glittering pieces were a study in decadence and luxury, but the personal favorites were the neutral toned gowns that we will sure be seeing again on the red carpet! Borrowing inspiration from the 1920 era and with a healthy dose of early 90's style, this latest Badgley Mischka F/W 2011 collection was unique but still wearable and definitely worth lusting over!
